The Spurlock - Meldahl Dam 345 kV project (queue ID PJM-C01-1227) is a proposed 780 MW natural gas-fired generation development project located in Mason County, Kentucky. The project is being developed by East Kentucky Power Cooperative, Inc., with EKPC serving as the associated utility. It is designed to connect to the electric grid at the Spurlock - Meldahl Dam 345 kV point of interconnection, from which the project takes its name.
The project is listed as active in the interconnection queue of PJM Interconnection, the regional transmission organization serving the area. It entered the queue on April 27, 2026, under a Generation Interconnection service request, and is currently in the C01 study phase. The proposed commercial operation date is December 31, 2031. The available data does not indicate whether an interconnection agreement has been executed.
